Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?

I'd agree that the OHMs are at their unique lifelike best at more lifelike listening volumes.

They can do well at low volumes, but will not differentiate themselves from most other good speakers that way.

Planars and electrostats like Maggies excel at lower volumes where big dynamics are less of a concern IMHO.

I also have a pair of small Triangle monitors that are perhaps as good as I have heard at low volumes. The OHMs are not too far being those at low volumes however.

Yesterday, A friend who went to the recent Paul McCartney concert at FedEx field in DC with me brought over a copy of a very good promotional (or bootleg?) copy of McCartney's performance at Coachella earlier this year that a friend had given him.

We sat down and listened using the Walsh 2 S3s.

He commented on how the sound presentation and quality was very reminiscent of the concert we had attended together. I had the same impression as well.

By design, we had field level seats in the sonic "sweet spot" at the FedEx field concert and the overall sound quality there was top notch for a venue that size.

That was a nice feather in the hat of the OHMs that I thought y'all might appreciate.

Nice, Mapman, thanks!

It's always nice to read an update on the Ohm's on this thread.

Right now I'm enjoying a Porcupine Tree binge on my Micro Walsh Talls. I'm even listening a little louder than usual-95 Db's peak. I still can't believe the way these little speakers fill my room.

WOW! 95dB? Be carefull...
